For the bank's risk management: The condition of having 3 extended benefits is a mandatory condition
For the benefits of customers: These 3 extended benefits will help increase the comprehensiveness and completeness of insurance benefits for the value of the customer's property against unforeseen risks causing economic damage to customers. 
Therefore, Customers must buy all 3 of these extended benefits in any case.

For insurance policies that customers purchased or were given a private home insurance and that insurance company is not in the list of Techcombank's partners, customers need to carry out procedures to confirm 3 parties transferring insurance benefits to Techcombank (as a sample of Techcombank). If you buy insurance from Techcombank's insurance partners, you will not have to do this procedure.

When choosing a loan product package to pay for insurance, it will bring customers the following utilities and benefits:
+ Customers will enjoy a more preferential fee, 20% lower than buying each year
+ Customers always have peace of mind and do not have to take time to renew their annual insurance because their assets will be insured during the loan period at Techcombank.
+ Customers do not have to pay a large insurance premium immediately; this amount will be divided into several small amounts and the customer will pay in lump sum with the loan and monthly interest.

In order to ensure the safety of the customer's assets and support the bank in risk management, current banks, including Techcombank, require the term of the auto insurance policy to be at least one year or more. Thus, if the customer has purchased a car insurance for themselves before, the customer can check how long the insurance has been purchased and in case that it wasn’t a one-year or more insurance policy, customers may be required to purchase a supplement to cover one year or be encouraged to purchase for the remaining time of the loan at the bank.

In case customers is only allowed to keep a copy of the insurance policy, in order to complete the claim procedure with the insurance company, customers will lose time and travel expenses to obtain the bank's confirmation.

The fact that the customer keeps the original set of insurance policies will help customers more convenient and faster in the process of making compensation if there is a risk or loss.

With Techcombank, buying insurance for less than 100% of the vehicle value will not greatly affect risk management, but will greatly affect the interests of customers, as follows:
+ In case when a loss occurs, the customer must take the car to the garage for repairong or replacing with new components or spare parts, the insurance company will only pay an amount equivalent to a percentage of the repair cost or the value of the vehicle or components. Therefore, customers will be very disadvantaged when they have to spend a considerable amount of money to pay for car repair or to buy new replaced parts or components.
+ If the insurance is not enough for the car, the compensation procedure will be more complicated involving the appraisal and valuation of the loss at a lower rate than the actual compensation value. It will take longer for customers to receive compensation.

Therefore, to ensure that the customer's property is always fully and comprehensively insured, the customer needs to buy insurance for 100% of the vehicle value.

Private home insurance will give customers complete peace of mind when their property is always protected by the insurance Company 24/24 and supports all costs of repair and construction of the house, as well as repair and replacement costs. Replace parts for the car if the house and car have problems.
